It was so seldom that they could find the time to take a lunch together. As a Second Lieutenant, there was always paperwork that the lazy Colonel didn't want to do himself, and the Colonel had his own meetings and piles of papers that couldnt be pawned off on anyone else.

The few times that they could get away at the same time, it was still under the pretense of a Colonel and his Lieutenant. It was almost as bad as not seeing him at all- being able to look but not touch. So close- he was on the other side of the table, but they both knew how dangerous even hinting at a relationship would be, so they sat across from each other, superior and subordinate, enjoying the brief lunch in the courtyard of Central Command.

Any time that they could get together was a welcome respite.

“Colonel.”

“Lieutenant.” Jean smiled as he sat down in front of Roy on the stone benches in the courtyard. A cool breeze wafted through the air, giving a little comfort on an otherwise unusually warm early spring day.

“Nice day, eh?”

“Yeah. Beautiful view.” Jean knew that slight smirk that played across his lover's face, a smile that was meant only for him- a brief crack on the stoney facade that he showed the rest of the world.

“Yeah...” The blond picked up a sandwich and starteed to munch on it, enjoying the quiet silence between them.

The fall leaves were crisp, shining their bright golden hues. Jean watched them fall from the branches, fluttering slightly in the breeze before finally succumbing to gravity. What he wouldn't have given to climb those trees like he had when he was a kid. It was impossible now, but remembering the fun he used to have growing up around his parents' home brought a smile to his face.

He rolled himself away from the window and to back to the front counter of Havoc Sundries, right as the bells attached to the front door chimed, announcing a newcomer.

“Welcome to Havoc Sundries. For over eighty years, from underwear elastic to farm vehicles, we have it... all...” He stopped his normal spiel when he saw the man standing in the doorway.

“Sir...”

“It's just Roy, now, Jean. Neither of us are in the military any more.”

“Oh, yeah. I... heard about your...”

“Yes. It's been a hard road, for both of us.”

Jean nodded his head, his wheel making a conspicuous squeak as he moved closer to his former lover. “Yeah, it has.”

The silence hung heavy between them, until Roy held up a basket that was in one hand. “You think you could sneak away for a few minutes for some lunch?”

He looked over to his mother, who was a few aisles away- stocking some canned goods. She smiled and waved him away.

“Yeah, I think that would be nice.”
